There’s such beauty in variety – and the eggs laid by our terns show it too. In our newest paper we try to find patterns in this variety and test how female identity and age, as well as laying order, affect the colour, spottiness, shape, and size of eggs: doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

Super excited to share the first paper from my PhD! 🎉

We found that rivers don’t just matter for wetland birds - they also help support terrestrial insectivores, thanks to the flow of energy and nutrients from aquatic insects. 🌊🦟

First paper from our tawny owl project finally out! Great European-wide collaboration, thanks to all participants who have kindly contributed their data. We found that noise negatively affects occupancy and breeding success, while the effects of light pollution depended on the distance to roads.
